The foundation of our Catholic schools is our primary mission that each child should be able to encounter the living God, who in Jesus Christ reveals his transforming love and truth. This mission rests on three interdependent objectives: to provide an environment in which children are enabled to build and deepen their relationship with God; to foster a rigorous academic culture aimed at the pursuit of truth; and to actively promote the development and growth of virtue in each child. Bishop Mark O’Toole. Our 36 schools across the South West of England are all part of a multi-academy trust Plymouth CAST.
